Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un appareil en relation avec la fabrication d'une bande de papier ou similaire (W), ou, dans un processus d'enroulage de cette bande (W), en relation avec un traitement de finition en ligne ou hors ligne de celle-ci. Selon ce procédé, une bande continue (W) est enroulée sur un mandrin d'enroulage (C2, C3) commandé par un dispositif d'entraînement central pour former une enrouleuse (R). Durant le processus d'enroulage le mandrin d'enroulage (C2, C3) se déplace lorsque le dispositif d'entraînement central (PD, SD) est couplé à l'extrémité du mandrin d'enroulage (C2, C3). Selon cette invention, le mouvement de rotation et le couple nécessaires dans le dispositif d'entraînement central (PD, SD) sont transmis d'un moteur d'entraînement fixe (PM, SM) à l'extrémité du mandrin d'enroulage (C2, C3) à l'aide d'une transmission de puissance (T) possédant au moins un joint. La nécessité de déplacer le moteur d'entraînement (PM, SM) lors mouvement du mandrin d'enroulage (C2, C3) est annulée. Dans un mode de réalisation préféré de cette invention, la transmission de puissance (T) est mise en oeuvre à l'aide d'un dispositif d'entraînement par courroie. En sélectionnant la transmission par courroie de façon appropriée, il est également possible d'éviter d'utiliser un système d'engrenage séparé.

Abstract: Improved methods and apparatuses for directly monitoring well casing strain and structural integrity are disclosed that allows for monitoring of potentially damaging strain from any orientation or mode and over long stretches of well casing. In a preferred embodiment, optical fiber sensors are housed within a housing and attached to the exterior surface of the casing. The sensors may be aligned parallel, perpendicular, or at an appropriate angle to the axis of the casing to detect axial, hoop, and shear stresses respectively. The sensors are preferably interferometrically interrogatable and are capable of measuring both static and dynamic strains such as those emitted from microfractures in the well casing. Analysis of microfracture-induced acoustics includes techniques for assessment of relatively high frequencies indicative of the presence of microfractures. Assessment of the timing of the arrival of such acoustics at various sensors deployed along the casing further allows for the location of strain to be pinpointed.
